Former Barcelona captain Carles Puyol is "furious" after Real Madrid won the Champions League for a record 13th time and says the Catalans must change priorities next season.
Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1 in Kiev to win the trophy for the third successive year, taking the focus away from Barcelona's La Liga and Copa del Rey double.
"I am convinced that we have a better team than Madrid, but they have won four of the last five Champions Leagues," Puyol told Barcelona based newspaper La Vanguardia.
I think the solution comes from getting our priorities straight. We're losing an opportunity and I'm furious about that as a Barca fan.
"Winning the treble is extremely hard as statistics shows, so I think the most sensible thing would be to relegate the Copa del Rey.
"Don't get me wrong, I loved playing in the final, but the path there should be for the reserves and the young players to show if they are good enough or not."
